About this excursion

We don't sell "cheap tours" — we create exceptional travel experiences that stay with you long after you've left Egypt. This full-day journey through Alexandria goes beyond a checklist of sights: it's a chance to feel the city's layered history and Mediterranean charm firsthand.

You'll explore the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, one of the Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages, descending into an ancient underground necropolis that blends Egyptian, Greek, and Roman influences. From there, visit the majestic Qaitbay Citadel, built on the site of the legendary Lighthouse of Alexandria, with sweeping views over the Mediterranean Sea. Then step into the modern Bibliotheca Alexandrina (Library of Alexandria), a tribute to the ancient world's greatest center of knowledge.

Beyond the main sites, enjoy time strolling the Mediterranean Corniche, tasting local food, and discovering the coastal charm that makes Alexandria feel different from anywhere else in Egypt.
